Rating: 1/5Great while it lasted

Pros: For the first year and a half of owning it this monitor was wonderful. Great colors, great response time.

Cons: In mid January of this year I started to get pink wavy lines on the right side of my monitor as other people have mentioned. Approximately 30% of my screen is now covered in pink waves all of the time.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

I apologize for the unfortunate cause of events with your ASUS VH236H LCD monitor. Did you purchase this monitor brand new? If so, you do have a 3 years manufactures warranty on your LCD. If you would like to know more about the ASUS RMA process, feel free to email me at cl-jolene@asus.com with case reference number N150207576. I would be more than happy to help assist you with all your ASUS needs.

Rating: 4/5Good monitor

Pros: Bought refurbished, arrived with a scratch on the screen. RMA'd it, and got one with no scratch. Now, we've had it for 2 years, and not a single complaint.

Cons: The speakers aren't great, but I didn't really buy it for the speakers. Got it for my wife's computer, and she uses headphones except when she runs across a really funny youtube video; then she says, "watch this!" and pulls out her headphones so I can hear it over the monitor speakers, and for that kind of use they work just fine.

Rating: 3/5Lasted almost 2 years

Pros: Had decent picture while it lasted. Speakers were a plus when I didn't have any.

Cons: Didn't last as long as i wanted, I have other much older monitors that still work the same as the day I bought them.

Other Thoughts: Over a decent monitor, should have lasted longer for the price I paid for them.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Bimmy,

I am sorry to see that your ASUS monitor did not last you as long as you wanted. What exactly happened to your monitor? If you purchased it brand new, you do have a 3 year manufacture warranty on the LCD. If you are still within that 3 year time frame, I would be more than happy to set up a RMA service for you. Feel free to email me at cl-jolene@asus.com. Please be sure to also include this reference number N141064313, in the subject line of your email as well.

Rating: 4/5Very good monitor - 5 yrs+

Pros: +Overall the picture quality is very good for an LCD monitor, given the price I paid back in June 2009 ($170). +It features full 1080p, VGA, DVI, and HDMI inputs which was very good for 2009.

Cons: -While the contrast ratio is good for a regular LCD, wish I had waited for an LED LCD monitor.-The picture quality is noticeably better with a DVI cable, rather than a VGA cable. Not sure if this is true of all monitors.

Other Thoughts: Been reliable for 5 years with moderate use, a few hours every day. No large complaints.

Rating: 3/5Backlight shot

Pros: Gorgeous picture - while the backlight worked. I expect 60 plus months of operation for a $200 computer monitor.

Cons: The backlight on this unit failed just after the 3 year equipment warranty expired, so ASUS must know a little something about their hardware ... like just how long it will last. I paid just under $200 for this unit from a local brick & mortar in July 2011. It's lasted right at 36 months.

Other Thoughts: Held a powerful LED flashlight up to the screen with the unit powered on and can see the browser image on the screen and have deduced the back light did indeed die on this unit. This monitor is notorious for suffering this problem within 40 months of use. I'd feel bad but another ASUS monitor VW222U, which I've had for 60 months is still working and looks great.

Manufacturer Response:

Rating: 5/5Fantastic!!!

Pros: Extremely fast response time, great color and brightness options. Plenty of ports in the back for connecting multiple devices.

Cons: Hardly ever goes on sale and $200 is a little pricey even though it's so great.

Other Thoughts: I bought this because it is "The Evo Monitor" used by fighting game players and organizers pretty ubiquitously. I had never thought about display lag in gaming before and definitely notice the difference between this and other monitors.
